Dwayne Johnson for president?
Dwayne Johnson is giving more thought to running for president in 2020, he revealed in a magazine interview recently.
“I think that it’s a real possibility,” the actor said, noting that he started thinking more about running for president following the release of an op-ed piece in The Washington Post that suggested he could win an election based on his likeability and ancestry.
“A year ago, [the idea] started coming up more and more,” the former WWE star said. “There was a real sense of earnestness, which made me go home and think, ‘Let me really rethink my answer and make sure I am giving an answer that is truthful and also respectful’.”
Johnson is the latest celebrity that has mentioned they would like to run for president following Oprah Winfrey and Kanye West.
